Day 223 - At the Third Place
Everyone should have a third place (as in home, work, other), some place where they can go when they need to relax or concentrate, some place where they can do what they need to do. Mine's a small coffeeshop (of a huge multinational chain) where I've met some of the most amazing people.
I've found that it gives me the opportunity to interact with people I don't see day in, day out, for hours at a time, saves me from the distractions of the office, and gets me out of the house. When used sparingly, I can work better here than at the office.
That, and the weather is just absolutely beautiful. Completely unbeatable.
